Social Learning Theory

The social learning theory says that humans learn from observing others, as first seen in the Bobo doll experiment.  Another study by Indiana University says that children who observe social bullying or aggression on TV are likely to carry out these undesirable actions.  This is partially due to the fact that the behaviors are normally presented in a humorous manner instead of being chastised for it.

This represents how humans learn through interaction with others and that these actions are not always socially acceptable even if they are seen in public.
